Profile:
The early part of his career lost to the War, Cliff Gladwin was a
seam and swing bowler good enough to play for England 8 times,
and to take over 1600 wickets for his native Derbyshire. A tall
man, he bowled at a brisk fast-medium, and commanded late
inswing, and a useful off-cutter. He has the distinction of being
involved in one of the most thrilling of Test match finishes, as
he scrambled a leg bye off the last ball of the 1st Test against
South Africa in 1948-49 to bring England a 2 wicket win. Really a
tail ender who liked to hit, his efforts in a crisis were
invaluable to England in that and the 5th Test of the tour life
(Dave Liverman 1998).
